He is a stalking type who should be contending for the lead early on and his position coming out of gate #1 has to help him tonight. He has been right there at the wire in each of the last 2 heats and must be considered a player tonight.

He has had a pretty easy time in this series winning all 3 of his heats so far and I don't see that streak ending tonight. He must be considered the favorite tonight and perhaps the favorite to win the whole series.

She is a closer and should be running hard in the stretch. I don't think she can beat ARCTIC WARRIOR but I would be shocked if she doesn't move forward in this tournament.

Another horse with late speed in this race and the short field has to help his chances. He will not be leading early, that is for certain but if he finds a lane late he could easily hit the board, a player tonight.

This horse has been a surprise to his connections as he has mediocre workouts and his horse rating is far below that of the competition (97), but he has been running hard in the stretch and a minor award is a possibilty this evening.

She has shown her versatility in this series, winning from off the pace or on the lead. My guess is tonight she will probably vie for the early lead and hope to hold off the closers. I am not sure she will have a running lane coming for home so I must pass.
